Drawing tips

I'm tired of drawing from sprite sheets, does anybody have any good drawing tips (manga style)? Anything good would be apreciated.

well when doing chibi always do characters with bangs sephiroth is good for begginer now manga that's like Naruto style what you do is pretty much make a basic outline of the pic using squares,circles,trianles etc. then add detail. I suck at art so don't try my advice and expect it to work

this is kinda what taught me. I used it as a guide to shape my skills, but then added my style to it. Just practice the basics and then add your own individuality on top of it. Thats the best advice I can give you.

*note*- the how to draw women section contains some slightly not for kid tutorials.

Been there done that. I am just below average, and I need to get really really good by August 18 (when school starts) so I can 1-up the better artists.

>>> I think the best way to learn that style is just read lot of manga..

I think the best way to get good at drawing is to look at lots of different manga tutorials and develope your own style with what you know, a bit of reality and a bit of japanese manga styling. I've been drawing manga for years and I'm not too bad, but I've combined about 3 different styles from tutorials I've found and manga artists I admire. There's no such thing as a quick fix, and you just need to take your time to become perfect.

Here's what you can do! These things were what I did that got me to draw! Watch a LOT of anime and read loads of manga! Once you find one you particularly like, try copying some of the pictures! Do this until you have a hold of the picture and start modifyng it like changing the posts of the characters and their expressions!
